In a flash, he's torn from his world thrusted into a realm of magic, myth, and long forgotten wars. Cursed by the power of a fragment from Azra's blade, Isaac must journey across fractured kingdoms and through the ruins of fallen gods. To return home and to prevent the world from collapsing under the relics' power; he must piece together what was broken long ago.

To The Girl Who Never Forgets by divyaS1019

The Girl Who Never Forgets by Divya S After ten years away, Anna returns to her childhood home with a quiet hope - to make peace, to remember warmth, to find closure before her time runs out. But the house she once loved has learned to live without her. Her mother looks through her as if she were a ghost. Her brother avoids her eyes. And the boy she once loved has already built a life that no longer includes her. They say she ruined everything. They say she lied. They never asked what really happened the night she was forced into the dark. As Anna spends her final days inside a home that no longer claims her, she learns that healing does not always come from forgiveness - sometimes it comes from letting go. And when the truth finally returns to the people who abandoned her, they will learn that remembering can be its own punishment. This is a story of grief, memory, quiet bravery, and the kind of love that exists long after the world stops deserving it. Some people never forget. Some memories never forgive. ⸻ Trigger Warnings This story contains sensitive and potentially distressing themes, including: • Childhood trauma and neglect • Sexual assault (off-page, referenced, not graphically described) • Family rejection and emotional abuse • Bullying and social isolation • Mental health struggles (PTSD, depression, guilt) • Severe allergic reaction / anaphylaxis • Terminal illness (kidney/liver failure) • Death and grief • Implied self-blame / suicidal thoughts (not acted upon) Reader discretion is advised.

The Book of Trials || ONC 2019 by Kehanni

When Veia Phelde is cursed, she hardly expects the ruin it will invoke, but will breaking the curse come at a cost more than its worth in blood? +++ Veia Phelde had been satisfied with her life in her small cottage in the woods, never bothering anyone save for her job as a blacksmith's apprentice. But when she loses her job, Veia is forced out of her comfort zone only to run into a simple book that means so much more than she wants it to. With blank white pages and a title carved by knife, the single word that scars the leather can only be the work of fate, and the danger it contains... well, let's just say that's fate, too. When a devilishly handsome traveler offers to take her to the City of Magic to break the curse, Veia finds herself hopelessly entangled in a danger more powerful than she could ever know. +++ ~ Featured Wattpad Picks: Hidden Gem (May 2020) ~ @StoriesUndiscovered Diamond list (2019) ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, Coral Awards 2021 ~ 2nd place in action/adventure, The Pantheon Awards 2020 ~ 3rd place in adventure, The Blue Rose Awards, August 2019 ~ Written for the Open Novella Contest 2019, gen fic open prompt (since expanded; 45k word count) ~ Also available on Inkitt, Prose, Sweek, and Quotev (but Wattpad has the best version) ;) Beautiful cover by @TheFashionPixie

Prequel: The Unbound - Awakening by whynotchilling

Before she was the hunted, she was the heir. Aria was born with a crown on her head and a cage around her ribs. As the daughter of the Serpent House, her life was a blueprint of bloodlines and duty: Secure Nexus mates from within the House. Awaken the Gift buried in her bones. Preserve the legacy at any cost. But Aria was never made to follow. And fate doesn't care for tradition. Her heart already belonged to the one man she was forbidden to love - her brother's best friend. And when her Gift finally stirred, it wasn't the weapon her family had waited for. It was quiet. Unexpected. A power they barely acknowledged - and one she was never meant to wield. Torn between the life she was born into and the power awakening inside her, Aria makes a single, irreversible choice. One that fractures her family, shatters her destiny, and lights a fuse beneath everything she thought she understood. Rebellion is no longer a rumor. Enemies wear familiar faces. And the most dangerous secrets are the ones written in her own blood. This is not a love story. It's the story of what love ruins - and what rises from the wreckage. _______ What to Expect: Unbound - The Awakening is a why-choose prequel: Aria's heart won't be claimed by just one. 🔥 Smut? Yes - but not right away. This one burns slow and deep. 🖤 Expect tension, heartbreak, soft touches, sharp edges, and impossible choices. ⚠️ Not all of her Nexus mates appear in this book. But the storm begins here.

Mystery, romance, adventure, and magic combine in this tale, in which a young princess who had grown up surrounded by an impenetrable web of lies, has to find her true identity, and free her kingdom from suffering.

She felt his surprise. She felt his light extinguish as he died. Then there was nothing. Nothing. Her head was swimming like it was underwater. She couldn't move. She couldn't move. Her vision blurred, a man was speaking but she couldn't hear his words. She felt the sword in her chest, but it wasn't there. He killed him. He killed him. Breathe. Did she stop? Breathe. The man, she could hear him speaking. What was he saying? Breathe. She inhaled a deep breath. And another. Then another. Things started to clear. "Breathe. That's right," the warrior coaxed. She started to take another settling breath, and his face came more into focus. The first thing she noticed was his piercing green eyes. She had never seen eyes quite like that before. She stared into them, mesmerized. He mimicked a breath and she took it with him. She was coming back. "I will not hurt you," the man kneeling before her promised. Anna knew better than to believe him. What was it he had said? Oh. "You...you said...you said 'no witnesses'." She was shaking violently. She took another deep breath.
